robocorpse Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 (edited) SOLD, THANKS! Hi all! Bought this as a backup for my Thunderbirds, set it up, and never got round to using it after rapidly departing from said band! The original sale thread is [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=86598"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=86598[/url] Bass has been played twice since then, and lived indoors. I have reused one of the pictures from the original thread, hope Thom doesn't mind Bass is in West London, but could be picked up from Central or South by arrangement. Looking for £235 ono.

StevieD_FenderP2009 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Wow, that's my old Mockingbird. What the f*ck has happened to it? Looks like someone used it to clean out a scrap yard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robocorpse Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 StevieDfenwhatever, You posted something similar last time it was up for sale as well. Its not helping. I'd advise you stick to forum rules and leave comments like this off other peoples FS threads, or someone might take offence sorta thing...

BigJim Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 If it wasn't so pointy and metal, I'd have it, it's stunning mate! Absolutely stunning, all the best of luck mate. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see why Entwistle was so enamoured of that pickup arrangement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robocorpse Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 To be fair, it has 2 very nasty bashes on it, one on the bottom point near the controls thats down to wood. Photo link in original post leads to good closeups of the dinks. I think I have priced it VERY fairly though. It plays really nicely despite the usual BCRich neck angle issues, and if I had more time, I would do the bridge rout mod and get it absolutely gnats-wing on the 12th fret First offer of 220 takes it, it's not actually THAT metal, it has the metal shape, but the trans finish and curly maple just oozes class...

Gust0o Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 One of the least metal of the modern BC Rich range - nice rock bass, but equally at hone across a range of genres. Plenty of punch in the double P format. Does neck dive, but easily sorted. Oh, and Robo's a dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomBassmonkey Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Lovely bass, it sounded awesome. The paint job is very classy too. I don't know what happened to it, I assumed someone used it as a cricket bat or something but it was before my time with it. It says in my original post, but I'll repeat here. The damage is purely cosmetic, it's chunks out of the body. When it left me, the neck was in brilliant condition (minus needing a set up), not a mark on it!
